Hello All, I am new to this forum, so please bear with me regarding my problem described below ! 
BIOS - pics.zip (7.6 MB)
GX800VHKAS311.zip (4.2 MB)
I have an Asus ROG GX800VHK, BIOS version 311 (attached) and I am seeking help for unlocking the BIOS for the following reasons:
-
I cannot change SATA mode in BIOS, there is no AHCI SATA mode, only Intel RST RAID mode (currently active). I am running Windows 11 Pro from a Samsung 980 Pro SSD on PCIe 3.0 X4 M.2 2280 NVMe and, because of the BIOS RAID mode, Samsung Magician software does not recognize the SSD, which makes me unable to upgrade firmware, secure erase the SSD or do other maintenance/optimization on the SSD. Samsung Magician documentation specifies that it does not support RAID mode, but only AHCI mode - which, as mentioned, cannot be changed in BIOS. What is even more confusing is that the laptop MB has no SATA devices, but only NVMe disks, so I don’t understand why ASUS does not let me change or disable SATA.
-
Installing Linux is out of the question, for the same reason mentioned above.
-
I cannot manually overclock the laptop. I can only do this using ASUS TurboGear, which, under Windows 11, is finicky and unreliable (i get many BSODs when trying to use the app).
-
I generally want to be able to see all the settings in BIOS, so that I can change them or customize as I want.
I would be grateful if someone would be kind to share a solution (BIOS unlock) that would let me freely customize the BIOS. If any other info is required, I would be happy to share it!
Thank you in advance!
